1 | Text source for artisitc inspiration | John | johngranton | 159605 | ||
College Paper Assistance Kindly Requested. Hello My Friends, I am writing a paper on the “Lamentation over the Dead Christ with the Saints” by Sandro Botticelli. It is a beautiful painting on wood. It is a later paiting when Botticelli had abandoned his mythical imagery. My question for the group is the source of the inspiration. I understand from research that it was the Book of Numbers was the text source. Does anyone know if there is a main source that was used for these text that I could study? Since the Book of Numbers were unique, each done by hand, I feel at a loss but feel there much be "official" source of text. Many thanks for any thoughts on this! John |

Hi, John... The "Book of Hours" (if you mean the devotional prayer book from the middle of the fifteenth century), is not part of the canon of Scripture. In the forum, we tend to be pretty focused on the text of the Bible itself. Someone may possibly know something about it. I only knew that it existed, and I've seen pieces (in Latin) quoted from it... although I can't think of where at the moment. :-) In Him, Doc |
